WETSEL’S Adapted Seed Corn tlybrids 
IT PAYS TO PLANT HYBRID CORNS 
U.S. 13 
110 to 115 days. This hybrid is so well known that it hardly needs descriptive comment. 
Although some other Corns gain in popularity each year, U. S. 13 continues to lead all other 
varieties (or numbers) in sales. That is, we sell more bushels of this Corn than any other 
hybrid. 
Its popularity is due, at least in part, to the fact that it meets the requirements of a vast 
majority of farmers. Relatively few farmers, in full-maturity areas, desire either an early or a 
late Corn. Nor do they want a very small or a very large fodder, or ear, or hard or soft kernel. 
A Corn that is ‘‘medium”’ in all of these respects, as is the case with U. S. 13, is more likely 
to be preferred, because it yields well in a wide variety of soils and degree of fertility as well as 
CORN EAR WORM 
DROPS 
The time has arrived when con- 
trol of corn ear worm is necessary. 
At least control of this pest will 
greatly increase your yield. Ogen’s 
Corn Ear Worm Drops are simple . 
to apply and will do a good job.

weather conditions, 
U. S. 99 
120 to 125 days. Large-foddered hybrid, 
hence requires longer time for full maturity. 
Stalks do not grow tall but are thick, with 
broad blades. Enjoys favorable reputation 
as a silage Corn. Kernels smooth and light 
yellow. Our stock of seed was produced by 
John S. Ward. 
U.S. 262 
About 125 days. Comparatively late- 
maturing Corn, becoming increasingly popu- 
lar in Tidewater Maryland and Virginia, also 
North Carolina. Stalks rather large and erect. 
A high-yielding Corn; ears fairly large, with 
pale yellow kernels. Not suitable for short- 
season areas. 
ILLINOIS 200 
120 days. Stalk somewhat larger than 
U.S. 13. Ear is longer, but slightly smaller 
in circumference. Best results are obtained 
on fertile or bottom soils. Has given high 
yields, even under adverse weather conditions. 
Easy to husk and of excellent quality. 
ILLINOIS 448 
120 days. A high-yielding hybrid of wide 
adaptability. Stalks very tall and stiff, wind 
resistant, producing two long yellow ears of 
medium diameter. Kernels closely packed, 
medium depth, with high shelling percentage. 
IOWA 939 
100 days. As intimated in comments on 
U.S. 18, it was second highest in number of 
acres of hybrids certified in Iowa over the 
past six years, thereby evidencing its popu- 
larity. Owing to short season maturity, is 
somewhat smaller foddered and eared than 
most hybrids. Thus far it has been our best 
seller in West Virginia and other sections 
where the growing season is comparatively 
short. 
OHIO W. 17 
100 to 110 days. Another comparatively 
early hybrid. Stalks medium in height, leafy 
and uniform. Produces medium ears, 16 to 18 
rows of shallow kernels. Stalk remains green 
after husks have ripened on the ear. Is widely 
used in West Virginia where the season is 
shorter than in the Valley and eastern Vir- 
ginia. Is also appropriate for either late plant- 
ing in full season areas, or where very early 
| harvesting is desired.
